Reader Reviews
This book is severely flawed. I am simply incredulous that any book entitled "Comic-Book Superstars" does not include the likes of Siegel and Shuster (the creators of Superman), Kane (Batman) or even Curt Swan, the artist who defined DC in the Silver Age. Just a few of the other omissions:Neal Adams,Denny O'Neil, Carmine Infantino,etc., etc. Instead, it's populated with a bunch of wanna-be's and never-will's. The blurb on the back would lead you to believe that this is some sort of comprehensive treatment of comic artists with lines like: "Evolving since 1934.." But, it's not even close.In my eyes, this book should be entitled "Comic Artists of 1993", as anyone who was inactive or dead in that year was excluded.If you're looking for a (rather dated) guide to current artists, this is probably helpful (if they haven't changed addresses in 9 years), but the name is a complete misnomer. Even though I got this book for free (as a give away) (which tells you it's true value), it isn't even worth the shelf space. It goes directly into the basement. What a waste of good paper.
